We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Westfield Bike Path yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Westfield Bike Path
“Safe, beautiful, well connected to other towns, well maintained, an all around true pleasure!”
Amazing bike trail in Westfield going down into Southwick and up into downtown Westfield. Always a pleasure riding on the bike surrounded by nature, you can see animals. It can get crowded sometimes and there can be people walking, running, cycling, riding their bikes, skateboarding, roller blading and more.
Great place to ride your bike or walk/run. Westfield has done an amazing job of expanding this trail. You can go south and connect to the Southwick trail or go north and soon will be able to get through town an over the Westfield river. Parking is available behind Shaker Farms country club.
This is by far my favorite bike trail I've been to. It's clean, well labeled, and well maintained. The path has no bumps, no roots, no nothing, so it's really nice for a bike. Definitely recommend for a nice walk or a place to bring your kiddos.
This is the best section of the rail trail. The asphalt is pristine for biking. There is lots to see along this stretch both north and south. Eagles, Bobcats, Squirrels & Rabbits. To the north is the bridge over the Little River.
